Guitar? Becuase the blacks love guitar. More believable if they said the drums
keys? they dont have locks on mud huts lmao
if we cant the gap between their teeth then yes they invented pencil sharpener
Even if 100% are true, it's the equivalent of placing 7th in the tard Olympics.
I can't find anything on this list that is believable and impressive.
And the unbelievable ones aren't that impressive. Lemon squeezer? WTF
Peanut butter 1896...
They want me to believe that before 1896 no one ever thought of taking peanuts and mashing them into a paste?
At least they could try and make it believable.
Only 75% untrue? Looks 100% untrue to me.
Notice how they are all back in the day when apparently slavery was rampant and they would randomly hang black folk? But there are literally no modern ones?
Looks like blacks were much smarter and more sucessful back then than they are today. Maybe they weren’t slaves then, but they are now like Jesse Lee Peterson suggests.
The rolling pin? Does that even have an inventor? That's like claiming to be the inventor of the knife. How were the Italians making pasta prior to 1864?
The first elevator is credited to Archimedes is 236 BC
It always kills me that in movies, plummeting elevators when cables break is a thing. For 150 years elevators have been designed for that NOT to happen.
Put the word African beside any invention and watch twitter retweet to the moon

I can only imagine the hell before 1878, when doors had neither knobs nor stops. They must have only had the swinging variety. You had to shoulder or kick them open, and then damn it they wouldn't STAY open! Don't even get me started on locking them.
